This in a nutshell is what defines stickiness. It can be defined further as the amount of time first time visitors spend and how often they return to the same website per month. It can also be measured in terms of the number of pages the visitors view (Bruce, 1999).
It is common that if a visitor to a website does not get what they are looking for they are most likely to sign off. To avoid this and encourage stickiness, the websites have to meet the following outlines. The website must be informative and thus the web managers must think of the possible questions the customers may have and put up their explanations in their website.

The website should also be easily readable. Ample spacing should be used, reader friendly fonts employed, the layout should be one easily and seamlessly flowing from one part to the next

It should also be….

creative thinking are important tools that can help a person in both their professional and their personal lives. As Pascal said, "We are but thinking reeds, but because we know, we are superior to the universe. Thought constitutes our greatness" (as cited in Kirby, Goodpaster & Levine, 1999, p. xix). This paper will discuss some of the facets of this important topic.
As there have been several definitions of the term "critical thinking" these definitions will be compared and contrasted. In addition, an evaluation of ways in which critical thinking relates to cognitive development, logic and emotionality will be given. The role of cognitive dissonance and how it plays in fostering critical thought will be analyzed, and the validity of arguments will be evaluated, as will fallacious logic and reasoning.

egarding creative thinking, the role that metaphors play in this process will be explained and the creative process will be analyzed.….

This can be achieved through brainstorming. Starbursting can help to identify customer needs in the marketplace, again helping with new product development.
Logical thinking is used to help solve problems in the workplace. For example, if FedEx loses money for the year, management must try to use inductive reasoning to understand how this observation came to pass. Management would consider what key variables it may wish to study, such as revenues or jet fuel costs. In a deductive manner, FedEx could observe that the economy is expected to recover in 2010 and from this premise build a conclusion with respect to how many new employees they will need to add in order to meet the added demand that will come to their business.

In the workplace, scientific thinking can be used to determine the source of problems. If a product is selling poorly, the company can change the price points multiple….

Edward De Bono's Creative Thinking Hats
Throughout the course of human history one unique aspect of the human brain has allowed our species to survive and thrive on an unprecedented scale: the creative faculty. The power of original invention, the artistic spirit and the astounding ability of man to claim supremacy over the natural world are all functions of the brain's propensity to create. While decades of rigorous scientific study of the brain's chemical composition and neural pathways has resulted in a greater understanding of the cognitive, behavioral and learning processes, research regarding the origin of creativity and the creative process itself has lagged behind. One of the world's foremost authorities on the topic of creative thinking is Edward de Bono, a physician, inventor and author who coined the phrase "thinking hats" to describe his own theories describing the creative process. This novel contribution to creativity research gave rise to the….

I cannot even imagine what will evolve in the next few decades, but I know that the advances will be awesome. I hope that we use them to make our lives better and to be more creative, and I hope we do not allow them to take over even more of our lives and draw us apart from each other. I think that technology like the Wii and other games have helped bring some families closer together, and I would like that trend to continue. We rely on technology for our jobs, and I am sure that will improve in the future, but I would like to see it make families and people closer, rather than isolating them like computer use can do today. I hope that technology does not become so advanced that we forget how to relate to each other in person, because that is an important….

Affective creativity may be argued as a primary tool in the resolution of interpersonal issues, more important than cognitive creativity, or cognitive learning. To consider how and why this is, the concept of affective creativity will be considered, and its role in resolving interpersonal issues discussed.
Different forms of creativity exist, frequently divided into two types of creativity. The first is associated with the technology things, resulting in outputs such as inventions, new scientific theories, and works of art (Sarnoff & Cole, 1983). The second type of creativity is the generation of new responses to daily challenges, essential for personal growth (Sarnoff & Cole, 1983. Vargiu (1973), categorises these as cognitive creativity and affected creativity. The cognitive creativity elements include the basic knowledge required for creativity, as well as specific knowledge in relevant fields, combined with the open-mindedness. The affective elements are intangible, and include aspects such as curiosity, humour, a….

Creative thinkers lead the way in nearly every field because they are willing to take intellectual risks, according to Kanar and Hopper. Risk-taking involves a leap of faith and even a willingness to fail. The creative thinker has an insatiable hunger for knowledge and understanding, and "does not take no for an answer," (Kanar and Hopper 51). However, creativity alone is insufficient for developing the type of mind that excels in fields like science and technology. Critical thinking is also crucial, because it provides the toolbox for analysis, learning, and intelligent comprehension. Ideally, analysis and invention combine in the dynamic individual.
According to Bloom's Taxonomy, there are six levels of learning including knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. These six levels of learning suggest that there are multiple approaches to solving a problem. A creative thinker knows that if one angle of thinking is not yielding results, that another might.….

Creative Problem Solving
The human condition appears to be creative in nature. Porter (2010) suggested that "ideas appear to arise by chance only when people are actually looking for them. It does not happen to people who are not curious or inquiring or who are not engaged in a hard search for opportunities, possibilities, answers or inventions, " (p.5). The purpose of this paper is to explain a created problem using the Creative Problem Solving Process (CPS). Specifically, this paper will focus on refining the solutions that were presented in an earlier essay.

Within a particular college class room, some of the students regularly come late to the class and left early. These same students also took extended long breaks and were absent from class most of the time. This was not acceptable by the students who always arrived on time and left at the end of the classes. The students….

Creative Intelligence
The first of the four styles of creative intelligence is intuition. Intuition focuses on results and relies greatly on the past experience of the individual or organization in order to guide future decisions that are made. Educators always give consideration to the importance of the past since it is a common belief that mistakes can be avoided simply by taking into consideration the history of the action. From the perspective of the business, every business organization needs to take into account the different patterns that arise and to exercise caution at all times. Through strategic planning, the organization will be able to prepare for all scenarios by forecasting any possible outcomes owe, 2004.

Some of the largest mistakes that are made are as a result of dependence on past results, but so are the biggest successes.

Creative Intelligence
In basic terms, an individual's creative intelligence can be brought out using four primary styles. These styles include inspiration, innovation, imagination and intuition. In this text, I discuss the four styles of creative intelligence. In so doing, I bring out their key similarities and differences and look at how they impact on organizational decision making. Further, I highlight how mindsets and mental modes are influenced by the five forces while giving examples of how the decision making process might be limited by mental models and mindsets. Lastly, I discuss the most frequently used mindsets and mental modes which would ideally guide and influence the decisions I make at the workplace.

Discussion

According to Weiten (2010), "creative intelligence involves the ability to generate new ideas and to be inventive in dealing with novel problems." When it comes to intuition, owe (2004) is of the opinion that the same mainly concerns itself with….

How long has this been going on?
Johnny: Now Vena, nothing's going on. Rochelle just happened to be with me when I went in to Safeway's.

Vena: (voice rising) "Happened" to be with you? It hasn't even been a full year, and already you've moved on to my family members. Is this what you meant by when you said you wanted to see other people? My family? Who's next, my mom!

Johnny: Please, Vena, don't start again. Remember, this is the whole reason why we broke up in the first place. I was going to be graduating, we wouldn't be able to spend as much time together, and you knew you would get jealous.

Vena: But with my cousin? And in my hometown? Didn't you care about me at all; didn't I mean anything to you?

Johnny: (soothingly): Really, I think you're jumping to conclusions. Rochelle wasn't hanging all over me, we were just….

Lisa finds it hard to meet other kids her age who are like her. Most of her peers "do not care about school" and don't understand anything about the issues she cares about such as environmentalism and Tibet. Lisa worries excessively about external, global events such as global warming and wars in Africa. Many of the people she refers to as "friends" are much older than she is, although she admits most of them are mentors.
A person with generalized anxiety disorder finds it difficult to control worry. Lisa has been unable to control her worry successfully via Buddhist meditation or tai chi. She writes regularly in a journal and claims that this does help but not enough. Although she finds temporary relief in music and schoolwork, her feelings of worry and anxiety creep back into her consciousness as soon as she is doing something else. She experiences the most….

Full creativity allows the production of greater wealth, for a stronger and more evolved society.
Further in defense of the moral systems or perceived lack thereof in terms of newly created wealth, D'Souza asserts that most wealth currently created is the result of personal effort, rather than means such as inheritance. The wealth can then indeed be seen as the reward for effort, rather than wealth as a result of luck in its pure sense. Morality's role should then not be concerned so much with justifying the accumulated wealth, but rather with using it wisely for the benefit of humanity, creativity, freedom and evolution.

Another characteristic of freedom, as seen above, is the recognition of new and revolutionary ideas, and implementing those when they are superior to the old. In terms of economy this is as true as in terms of morals. Those in power for example refuse to accept the….

There are many instances of art acting as a means of enabling people back to health. This healing aspect of creativity is, I believe, due to the fact that we are liberated from the restrictions of the world in the process of creativity and because artworks are in a sense the residue of the experience of spiritual and expanded consciousness.
There are numerous clinical studies which show the effective of art therapy. For example, a number or art therapists have studied the affect of art therapy on people who have experienced loss. "Art therapists consistently observe the power and potential of art to help identify, cope with, and heal the pain experienced during the grief process..." (Hill, M.A.)

However, the healing process in creativity can best be explained by the deeper meaning of spontaneity.

Nachmanovitch asks the important question: "How does one learn improvisation?" The answer to this question is similar to….

Creative Business Thinking
Key Activities: There are two key activities in the microbrewery business. These are making beer and selling beer. The two are distinct processes, and are only loosely related. The beermaking process is fairly simple, and there are only so many ways to reinvent that wheel. So the key success factor with that activity is to brew beer that has no technical flaws, but also that has a character that appeals to the modern beer drinker. This means building a portfolio with a mix more lighter, more approachable beers and more full-flavored beers that appeal to beer geeks, like the sour program highlighted in on the Kickstarter site.

The second key activity is marketing. Beer distribution is a challenging business. Laws differ from state to state but there is often a third party involved, the distributor. Even with a distributor, microbreweries need to find ways to generate publicity and goodwill….
